glucosamine sulfate/necrosis

The aim of this work was to develop a transdermal delivery system consisting of a glucosamine sulfate-laden xanthan hydrogel containing a nanoemulsion-loaded diacerein. The system was intended to prevent cartilage degradation typical of osteoarthritis. The nanoemulsion, made of soybean oil as the

OBJECTIVE We investigated whether glucosamine sulfate modulates the production of ICAM-1 induced by proinflammatory cytokines and whether glucosamine sulfate inhibits leukocyte adhesion to a monolayer of human conjunctival epithelial cells stimulated with proinflammatory cytokines. METHODS We used

Glucosamine is an amine-containing sugar that exhibits immunosuppressive effects in vitro and in vivo, although its mechanism of action is unknown. We investigated whether glucosamine sulfate (GS) modulates the proinflammatory cytokine interleukin (IL)-1beta-induced expression and production of

OBJECTIVE Epidemiological evidences suggested an inverse association between the use of glucosamine supplements and colorectal cancer (CRC) risk. In this study, the efficacy of glucosamine to attenuate dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis, a precancerous condition for CRC, was

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common form of arthritis, which is characterized by the degeneration of articular cartilage, leading to joint dysfunction. Oral drug therapy seems to ameliorate some signs and symptoms of OA, but may be accompanied by side effects and does not appear to be effective

Despite the recognition that degenerative cartilage disorders like osteoarthritis (OA) and osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) may have nutritional abnormalities at the root of their pathogenesis, balanced dietary supplementation programs have played a secondary role in their management. This review

Overproduction of reactive oxygen species and impaired antioxidant defence accompanied by chronic inflammatory processes may impair joint health. Pro-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) stimulate the expression of metalloproteinases
